Distance depends on your height
Your stride length is roughly 0.41 × your height — so a shorter walker covers less ground per step.
| Your height | Stride | Miles | Kilometers |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4'10" (147 cm) — petite | 60.7 cm | 5.28 mi | 8.50 km |
| 5'4" (163 cm) — avg woman | 67.3 cm | 5.86 mi | 9.42 km |

We use an average adult stride length of 76 cm (2.5 ft). Steps × stride length (cm) ÷ 100,000 = distance in km. So 14,000 steps × 76 cm ÷ 100,000 ≈ 10.6 km. Your actual stride is roughly 0.41 × your height.
